Containers
This directory contains configuration files for containerization utilities.
Currently two Docker containers exist, ci defines how Dash's GitLab CI container is built and the dev builds on top of the ci to provide a containerized development environment that is as close as possible to CI for contributors!
Usage Guide
We utilise edrevo's dockerfile-plus, a syntax extension that leverages Docker BuildKit to reduce the amount of repetitive code.
As BuildKit is opt-in within many currently supported versions of Docker (as of this writing), you need to
set the following environment variables before continuing. While not needed after the initial docker-compose build
(barring updates to the Dockerfile), we recommend placing this in your ~/.bash_profile/~/.zshrc or equivalent
export DOCKER_BUILDKIT=1
export COMPOSE_DOCKER_CLI_BUILD=1
After that, it's simply a matter of building and running your own development container. You can use extensions for your IDE like Visual Studio Code's Remote Containers to run terminal commands from inside the terminal and build Dash Core.
cd contrib/containers/develop
docker-compose build
docker-compose run container
